Trail MCP
Trail is an issue tracker and durable project memory for AI coding agents. It allows agents to write loose ends into cards, tracks whether changes were made by humans or agents, and maintains project memory across sessions. It supports multiple projects, attachments, and change history, integrating with tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI.
